Click SetupiBlot3.0.0.exe to install the iBlot Updater (note where the program is installed so you can run it after installation)

Make sure that the iBlot power switch is in the OFF position, and the device is NOT connected to a PC or other instruments before starting.

Run iblotUpdater.exe and press next.

Press and hold the "Select" button (black button closest to the LCD screen).

Release the "Select" button and connect the iBlot to the computer with a USB A to B cable (A end into the computer, B end into the iBlot). The computer should now begin to search for the iBlot. This step may take several minutes. The PC will locate your iBlot and inform you if it is found.
